36th Annual Finn Fest

August 9–11

The festival is quickly approaching! Mark your calendars and come out to support this major fundraising event. Get some work hours in, visit with fellow members and friends, and cheer on the Finn Camp’s Voima Boys softball team!

Friday kicks off the festival weekend with the kitchen and beer truck opening at 5:00 p.m., followed by the Home Run Derby, beginning about 6:30 p.m. Come see the big hitters knock ’em into the woods!

We will continue the evening with music and dancing in the Clubroom!

On Saturday the kitchen will open for breakfast at 8:00 a.m. with food available all day in the Ravintola or the food tent. The softball tournament also begins at 8:00 a.m., with games on our George Aho Memorial Field and the Gilbert Willis Park fields. Flagraising ceremonies will be at 11 a.m. There will be music and entertainment from the Dance Hall porch plus 50/50 raffles, a pitching booth, horseshoes and other games, face painting, and the sale of Finn Camp/Finn Fest merchandise throughout the day. Save some energy for the dance floor, with our DJ playing all our favorites in the Dance Hall.

Sunday we will do it all over again! The kitchen will open for breakfast at 8:00 a.m. with food available all day. Softball will continue on all three fields, with the championship game on the Finn Camp’s Aho Field in the late afternoon or early evening, followed immediately by trophy presentation. Music, raffles, and other activities will continue as well.

Many members are needed to work in all areas throughout the weekend, especially in the security and kitchen areas. As we are a cooperative association, please participate by giving a few hours of your time to pitch in and help make our festival successful! Work hours sign-up sheets are posted at Sun Lake Beach, or contact Robyn directly for other available options for hours.
